Economie circulaire

L’économie circulaire consiste à concevoir des systèmes de production en boucle qui s’inspirent de la nature où les déchets des uns deviennent les ressources des autres !



UpCycle conçoit des systèmes alimentaires urbains et durables à partir de plusieurs flux de sous-produits non valorisés.

Nous avons une approche systémique et pluridisciplinaire pour produire des aliments d’excellente qualité, différemment et localement avec des professionnels de la restauration et de distribution.

Economie solidaire

L’économie solidaire est un écosystème économique dans lequel chacun a sa place et notamment les personnes en situation de handicap ou de grande exclusion.

Tous nos produits sont produits par des associations sociales et solidaires pour proposer une offre innovante et solidaire.


UpCycle a reçu l’agrément «entreprise solidaire» de par sa mission et son choix de privilégier la sous-traitance de la plupart de ses activités à des structures d’accueil de personnes fragilisées dont les missions sont de reconstruire par le travail et de restaurer la dignité.

Dear Owe,

It was a real pleasure meeting you yesterday, and I was very impressed with your design for vertical farming! As I said, I am sending hereby some information of your company to prof. Gunter Pauli of the Blue Economy, for I am sure he will like your solution to reducing foortprint for urban farming by going vertical trough your helix-system. You really need to explain him as well how you see your business model, also with regards to the Indian-american that support your case, very beautifull. Prof. Pauli, on this link you can find some infomation on mr Petterson's company; http://plantagon.com/urban-agriculture/vertical-greenhouse

Owe, I also promised to send you some infomation on the urban greenshouse we designed for the city of Ghent, with the use of ETFE as 'glazing'. We are studying cost and feasability with Tentech, a dutch engineering form that specializes in tent-construction (calculations).

Friendly greetings,
Sven

PS: I also liked Sam Harrington's system on mycellium very much (ecovative.com), really nice person, just like you :-)

How does biodiversity affect ecosystem services (everything nature provides for our survival)? The answer is complex, but this much is clear: we need to preserve the biodiversity we're so rapidly losing, and to support research that gives us real insight into how ecosystems work.

This was a student project for an intro conservation biology course, taught by Brad Cardinale at the School of Natural Resources & Environment at the University of Michigan. He stressed the importance of accurately representing scientific research and not making any exaggerated claims; if you want an annotated script of this video, feel free to email cynshih@umich.edu. (Also, we'd never made animations in Flash before, so we hope our primitive efforts are amusing!)

"Der Traum von Wachstum ohne Umweltbelastung"
Gunter Pauli ist Gründer der sogenannten Blue Economy. (picture alliance / dpa / Foto: David Chang)

Papier aus Steinstaub, Speisepilze aus Pflanzenabfällen: Eine Welt, in der es keinen Müll und keine Armut mehr gibt, klingt utopisch. Der Belgier Gunter Pauli hat mit der Gründung der sogenannten Blue Economy einen wichtigen Anfang gemacht.

Agnes Chakwanira kann es kaum erwarten, den Besuchern ihren - wie sie es ausdrückt - größten Schatz zu zeigen. Er verbirgt sich in einem unscheinbaren Häuschen, drei mal drei Meter mit Wellblechdach. Drinnen ist es dunkel und feucht. Ein ideales Klima für Austern- und Shiitakepilze. Sie wachsen aus Säcken, die Agnes auf einem Regal aufgereiht hat:

"Zunächst waren ich und meine Nachbarn überrascht, dass man Pilze überhaupt züchten kann. Traditionell sammeln wir sie im Wald. Aber dann kam Chido und erklärte uns wie es geht."

Plastic bottles can be recycled by stacking them into bottle towers to set up a vertical kitchen garden at home. The bottle towers are used for container gardening of vegetables and herbs. How to build such a tower is shown in different steps."

"ELECTRICITY AND HEAT FROM WOOD PELLETS


Our mission is the realisation of an electricity-producing heating system.

So, what is so special about this concept? The answer is that OkoFEN is developing a CO2-neutral technology with wood pellets as energy source, which can supply a building with both heat and electricity!



The most common and established type of combined heat and power production (CHP) is known as cogeneration, which is a system that has been studied extensively in the development of OkoFEN_e."
